Honey, I Love You!

[mermaidcursed]

WHO? Nene Yashiro and YOU!
WHAT? Nene decides to start a cute ice breaker game. 
WHEN? Early April, before the charity showcase starts filling up and WAY before either body shows up in the auditorium.

An hour after the last 'normal' student leaves, Nene Yashiro commandeers homeroom 1-B! Some preemptive notice has been given in that she's told people she both does and does not recognize, all from spring break, but there's also a sign taped to the doors inviting passersby inside to meet other transfers. 

If that doesn't interest your character, I'm sure someone else will happily drag them in anyways! Even if they don't want to partake in Nene's icebreaker game, they can still come by and be with the others, of course- and commentate. 

When people enter, they'll find desks pushed to the walls for the most part, but most of the chairs are arranged in a circle. There's a couple plates of sugar cookies and homemade donuts with a seran wrap cover to keep them safe (and a note encouraging people not to take too many), and on the blackboard in chalk it reads a game and a set of rules!

"Honey I Love You

An ice breaking game to make people smile! Whoever's it must stand in the center of the circle and pick a person! To start the round, they tell them "Honey, I love you, will you give me a smile?" and their chosen must respond "Honey, I love you, but I cannot smile" without smiling. If they succeed, the person in the middle has to try whatever they can to get them to smile. Once they do, they change places! 

RULES:

1. No touching anybody! No tickling or lifting or anything. (That's cheap, anyways.)

2. If you can't get someone to smile in 5 minutes, move on to someone else. 

3. Smiling or laughing is an automatic lose! Majority vote on what counts as a smile if it can actually be contested. 

4. don't be weird please

also please don't eat ALL the cookies or donuts they're for everyone

DEPUTIES
noah-kun
clamor-san" 

Nene seems rather pleased herself. Any volunteers on going first?

... Of course, eventually she'll have to set up the Naughty Corner for rule breakers, so in the corner, with a few desks turned around to make walls, is a  cardboard jailcell. Nene worked really, really hard on it, but she'd hidden it away initially out of naive optimism. There's also more in case she needs to separate people in the naughty corner. It has also been vandalized with GAY BABY JAIL, so there's that.


((OOC RULES

- Feel free to start your own rounds, of course! But if you want to wait until someone gets your character to smile to start your own round in a top level, that's also okay. Rounds can be either your character asking someone to smile or rebuffing a smile. 

- Characters who aren't playing the game are allowed to commentate! 

- Be fair about smiles, of course! 

- Again, this is BEFORE either body has been set out!!! Please keep that in mind. 

- Have fun owo ))

QUESTIONS?

[mermaidcursed]

just in case!

[commences]

is touching (by shaking someone's shirt with your hands) against the rules, is that a loss

Angel | ota

[angelindisguise]

[Angel is curious about the circle of chairs, and the scent of food (the thing that attracts her to most places, usually). But there's other people here too, and for a second she thinks about moving on, uncomfortable with being around that many humans but...

Well, Stephanie made a good point about finding a family here.

She enters, plopping herself right in the middle of everything. The problem with the game is that she doesn't mind participating... it's that she can't read.]

So what's going on here?

Re: Angel | ota

[mermaidcursed]

( oh my god it's a talking puppy. ....angel's lucky that she's basically used to talking pink bunnies already! ... and talking fish. )

We're going to play a game. The person who stands in the middle has to try to get someone to smile, and if they do, that person takes their spot.

[dangertohands]

[Talking dogs aren't so strange. Shoto's former(?) principal is a mouse. So at least he won't be looking at this pup strangely.]

I'm not sure. I don't know what an ice breaking game is.

[ ROUND START !]

[mermaidcursed]

( nene's going to approach someone with a very sincere smile. )

Honey, I love you! Won't you give me a smile?

[trialbyliar]

[She probably thought Kokichi would be an easy target. I mean, he was so smiley when they met in the home ec room, right? So it's probably a tragic surprise that his expression is completely blank, save for an slightly arched eyebrow.]

Honey...

[The drama. He shakes his head and gives a theatrical sigh, crossing his arms.]

I love you, but I can't smile.

I'm sorry

[silentabyss]

[Noah dies.

That's it. He's just dead.

It's a slow, painful death. It takes Noah about ten seconds until he's cherry-red and wide-eyed, mouth opening and closing like a dying fish, and then he...

He doesn't smile, but he buries his face in both hands, groaning into them. Not out of agony or dislike for Nene or anything like that, but because...

...because...

Cute.]

hewwo give me our protag too

[unsurely]

Ah...

[ It's Nene so he's not as uncomfortable as he could be... and he has been reading the rules so it's not like he didn't know what he's getting into, he just... didn't expect to get picked this soon. Mind is immediately blank of all the info he's been processing, thank you. ]

S-Sorry. One second.

[ His eyes dart to the board for the millionth time and he kind of just. Reads it from there. ]

Honey... I love you... but I cannot smile?

[ Why does he sound like he's not convinced what they're even doing. Shuichi please. ]

[dangertohands]

[.... Nene is going to get a rather confused look. He read the instructions, but he didn't think it was serious?]

What? Shouldn't you know someone longer before saying that?

[rhymed]

[ big brother is here to bully ]

Honey, [ His voice is gentle, as it always is, but he keeps his lips perfectly poised in a straight line. He cants his head a little, perking a brow. ] I love you, but I can’t smile.

[kingofscience]

[ Senku isn't actively playing or anything, but he doesn't wanna be alone while he's studying in this murderschool. He's currently at a desk, watching the festivities as he reads, though. ]

...

[ You're welcome to challenge him to the game still, despite him not being in the circle. However, it's 10 billion percent assured that you will not win. ]

ok another round started

[mermaidcursed]

( she's just gonna plop into a seat nearby and slide over one of the plates of goodies! )

here!! i made some before getting everything set up. try one!

[loyalbreed]

"Honey, I love you, but I cannot smile"

[ Hes smiling. ]

[sunstead]

You're not going to join them?

[not that Clamor intends to push him into it, since he seems to be quite the diligent student right now... it's good that some of the kids here understand the value of a good education!]

[angelindisguise]

[Hello, Angel was given the challenge by Nene to make Senku smile, so here she is.]

Honey, I love you, won't you give me a smile?

he lost bc a Certain Girl is Cute so it's his turn now

[silentabyss]

[Honestly he's too awkward to be playing a game like this but it sounded fun on the tin, so... Noah kind of just... ambles up to someone and squeaks out,]

H-honey, I... uh... love you, w-will you give me a smile?

[This is so embarrassing someone kill him]

[sunstead]

[this is the price he pays for lingering around to tease noah, help he doesn't have the context he's just gonna have a mini heartattack]

N-noah? What are you doing? [this is some kind of game? why is it so cute??

also he already lost. amazing. he's doing the speedrun just try and beat his record]

[trialbyliar]

[Kokichi's got great facial control, but he does always eventually let people "make" him smile for the fun of it. Besides, this role is fun, too.

And he's totally shameless in it, leaning in close to his victim with a sweet smile.]

Honey, I looooveeee you! Please gimme a smile?

[unsurely]

Huh? O-Ouma-kun...?

[ He's gonna be taking a step back from that one, thank you, it's not like Kokichi in his personal space is anything new in his case. Also: he's out of the circle?? ]

I'm not playing any--

[ --more, except he catches sight of Nene from the corner of his eye. He really thought he could sit out after a round or two, but... He doesn't want to disappoint her, either. He does kind of get that... she's trying to take her mind off some things and get everybody to do it too. Including him.

He's grateful for that, it's just... Kokichi. Damn it. Okay, fine, he's scooting back past the line. ]

...Alright. But stop getting so close -- you're almost breaking the rules.

[dereban]

[Inaba is also here wallflowering and not playing the game because in a place like this where murders are happening it's best Not To Be Alone, Take This™️, because while she's generally competitive in games, this is the only game that she wouldn't actively play...

...for certain reasons that she'll leave off the proverbial table for now.

But she is keeping an eye on everyone!!!]

[mermaidcursed]

( well, if she's wallflowering, nene will be sure to slide her the plates of cookies and donuts. )

Here, take a couple.

[commences]

( this comes off as natural as it can be, but that's because he has no shame in the matter of who he's asking. )

Honey, I love you. ( he pauses, thinking about it. ) Won't you let them see you smile?

[contrarily]

Ewww, I'm not saying that back to you.

( BLEH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

anyway. )

But I'm not smiling either, so dance like a jester!

@ THE NAUGHTY CORNER

[commences]

[commences]

( contrarily

he's only here because of YOU. )

[rhymed]

[ Hajun is just here to be a normal boy and do Normal Things™️ before he loses his shit. Again.

Eventually he’ll lose, which is unfortunate for everyone else. He approaches someone with an honest smile — please, don’t be fooled, he’s competitive and here to win. ]

Honey, I love you, [ And, shamelessly, he lifts a hand to form a finger heart... ugh. ] will you give me a smile~?

[ The words leave his mouth in a sing-song tune; he at least sounds good so there’s that. ]

[contrarily]

Gross. No. And stop making these little finger hearts, nobody falls for that.

( and she'll cross her arms, looking at him with a skeptical expression. )

I can't smile.

[taketori]

[ wow is this a look into shirogane's future or what

He knows he's not going to do too well at this, but he's decided it's best to play anyway. At least for the sake of getting to know who he's locked in here with. When it's his turn, he closes his eyes and stands in front of... well, whoever. ]

H...Honey. I love you. Won't you please give me a smile?

[ As he desperately tries to not think that it's Shinomiya in front of him, or get the typical face stuck in his head. ]

[mermaidcursed]

Honey, I love you, but I cannot smile.

( look at that... she doesn't know how... tragic... )

[dangertohands]

[Okay maybe ice breaker games can be good?? Shoto is still in the camp of "why are we doing this?", but a game is a game.

And games are meant to be won. Maybe he will get to know some of the people around here, so why not. Though anyone who comes up to him will get a rather flat expression that doesn't fit what he's saying at all.]

Honey, I love you, will you give me a smile?

[contrarily]

( wow, look at this one... she's quick to approach him, though his words seem to be ignored entirely, as she frames his face in a makeshift, finger-camera. )

Whoa! The two-tone hair is so cool! ( she seems excited, and smiling, so he won? ) How do you feel about idol work? We could totally make a good unit.

Some pre establish CR fun!!! Diona only has some memory. she stayed to have fun with the big kids

[englisch]

Dummy, I love you, SO YOU HAVE TO smile!!

daughter...

[wolfetracks]

( he wasn't even playing, he was just here to make sure nothing went wrong after the gay baby jail naughty corner went up. but there's diona, marching right up to him because everything goes by her rules, obviously.

he stares for a moment before giving a sigh and even letting his expression fall to a slight frown. )

Honey, I love you, but I cannot smile.
